Yes, I am a chicken, NOT a turkey. Hah! Bah.

Not fair. I'm in class, but the teachers aren't. >.> Bastards.

Anyway, funny story: Seppuku-style.

My friend A had been incredibly bored in gym class one day. They were sitting down and actually writing for once. She scribbles and doodles on the paper which she then hands in. The gym teacher is shocked at what she wrote and gos running to her counselor. (We have 'guidance counselors'. I have no idea what they're being paid for. >.>)

She had written (dun dun dun) "I want to commit seppuku." How had this young late-thirties teacher with a young daughter know what seppuku meant? We have no idea. (Seppuku means suicide, basically. But it's an honorable thing to do.)

A gets sent to her 'counselor'.

"Why did you write that?"
"Is everything okay"
"Why do you feel that way?"

A is going 'Omgod, what an overreaction.' This was...last year, I believe. She told me the story the other day.

TURKEY DAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm going to the Macy's Parade this year. ^-^ Whooooooooooooooo! I have lived uptown by Central Park for years and I have never attended. It's like New Yorkers and Dick Clark's New Year thing--we never NEVER go. Only tourists do. Of course there may be exceptions, but I have no idea who would risk drowning in the human red sea.

Just so happens that my mother's friend had four tickets and gave them away. To us. ;D So? Up, up, and away! To the bleachers we go to freeze our asses off!

And I have a turkey dinner awaitn' at one o'clock. Don't ask. I have no idea why it's so early. >.> I'm going to sleep over at my grandmother's and bringing my SAT stuff with me. SAT this Saturday...TT.TT *sigh* Oh, well. My last for my apps. I might take it again to get the highest score possible because my bastard of an uncle always brags about how he's a genius and the smartest in the family and all that. *eyeroll* Just to shut him up. I'm not going to try to break his record or hatever because for one, I don't know what he got, two, I'm taking the NEW 2400 SAT anyway so we can't compare, and three, if he asks, I've actaully got an answer and he can't call me dumb. Asshole. >.>

HAPPY TURKEY HOLIDAY! _{Haha, funny little smilie...}

one of these days I'll be attending a macy's day parade, but I'll be doing it as a tourist. till then, I keep up the tradition of waking up early to watch it on TV. good luck on your SATs!!!

The counselor probably knows it because it's a common knowledge type of thing. It's not like she had written down some weird manga/anime referrence or something. Also it's not just an honorable suicide. There's a ritual to it and you have to do it just right otherwise your muscles will contract and you won't die like you should.

Don't you just love relatives, or anyone, who thinks they are the best? XD

bwahaha.. i actually don't even know what's seppuku. it sounds to me like number ten in japanese. haha.

LOL!! That is so funny! I wonder if the gym teacher watches anime though, seppuku is not a common thing to see in an anime. Still it is hilarious. I have no Turkey.. feel lucky.

I probably won't be watching the parade, but that's because I'm at this very moment working a graveyard shift the night before thanksgiving. Which means I'll be sleeping the parade away. heh. Pity me not, though. Time and a half is a beautiful thing.

Guidance counselors don't seem to be all that helpful here, either. :P
